We came here because we were looking for the Soul Condensing Grass. Now that I heard that Hu Jinyue was going to help Yuchen find the herb, although I knew that Hu Jinyue was bored and wanted to go out for some fun, I still felt a little moved.
But then I remembered Yuchen's instructions, and I refused, "Hu Jinyue, we can't use spiritual power here. Just in case, we'd better stay at home honestly and don't go anywhere."
Hu Jinyue was unwilling, "Brother Ma, the soul-condensing grass is everywhere in the Demon-Sealing Valley. What danger will we encounter if we dig the grass? And take the soul-condensing grass back and feed it to the third master to help the third master condense it as soon as possible.
After we get out of the inner elixir, we can leave here as soon as possible. I don’t want to stay here any longer. Look at my tail. I can’t use my spiritual power. I can’t even take my tail back. Look!”
As he spoke, he turned around and turned his butt towards me, "It's very inconvenient to have tails on the back of my body. For these nine tails, I have to cut a hole in my pants! I'm several thousand years old, so I can't wear this
Pants, am I ashamed?”
Brother, you know how shy you are, so why don’t you let me see your butt?! I’m not interested in the hole in your butt at all!
I looked away.
Seeing me looking away, Hu Jinyue shamelessly approached me again, "Little brother Ma, look at it, my butt is so cold..."
"I don't want to see it!" I resisted the urge to kick him and said, clearing my mind, "Hu Jinyue, Qianchen is Zhai Xiaofeng's nephew, Zhai Xiaofeng will not let anything happen to Qianchen, and Qianchen and Yuchen are the same person
, she will definitely help Yuchen..."
I will briefly tell Hu Jinyue the grudges and hatreds of the previous generation.
After saying that, I said, "So Hu Jinyue, if Zhai Xiaofeng wants to help Yuchen condense the inner elixir, then even if we do nothing, she will take the initiative to refine the medicine from the soul-condensing grass and give it to Yuchen. On the contrary,
If Zhai Xiaofeng doesn't want Yuchen to condense his inner elixir, then it will be useless even if we collect the soul-condensing grass."
After all, the soul-condensing grass is just a medicinal herb and needs to be made into medicine before it can be taken. We can't dig up the soul-condensing grass and let Yuchen eat it directly!
After hearing what I said, Hu Jinyue's mouth opened wide and her eyes lit up. She was both surprised and eager to share this piece of gossip with others, "Bai Ziqi has been forced by a woman! Hahaha... This is so funny to me, I have to help."
He goes to promote it."
As soon as the words fell, he was about to leave.
I grabbed him and said, "Where are you going to promote it? People in the Demon-Sealing Valley have personally experienced what happened back then. They know the details much better than we do. There is no need for you to go and tell others."
Hu Jinyue seemed to have just reacted after hearing what I said.
He said angrily, "Brother Ma, we have to find a way to get out of here as soon as possible. I know such gossip, but no one can share it, but it suffocates me to death."
He wanted to go out even more than before, because he was eager to share this gossip.
I told Hu Jinyue that when Yuchen recovers from his injuries, Hua Rong will find a way to send us out. Before that, we just stay here and don't run around or cause trouble.
Hu Jinyue loves to make a fuss, he just has a restless temper, and he will never have the chance to come to a place like the Demon Sealing Valley in this life. He originally planned to play around, but I asked him to just stay at home.
.
Hu Jinyue muttered depressedly, but finally agreed.
In the next few days, Zhai Xiaofeng would come over every noon and bring a bowl of dark medicine made from unknown herbs. Every time, she would stare at Yuchen after drinking it before leaving.
She didn't bother me anymore. She just told Yuchen that after drinking the medicine, he must meditate on his luck, keep his mind focused, and not be disturbed by external things.
Although I felt that Zhai Xiaofeng would not harm Yuchen, I still felt a little uneasy. I found Hua Rong and asked him what kind of medicine Zhai Xiaofeng fed Yuchen?
Hua Rong told me that it was the concoction of the soul-condensing grass, and Zhai Xiaofeng was helping Yuchen condense the inner elixir. Condensing the inner elixir is a breakthrough for Taoists. At this time, it is easy to go crazy, so Zhai Xiaofeng warned
Yuchen must meditate.
This is also the reason why Zhai Xiaofeng suddenly regards me as nothing and no longer causes trouble for me. If she causes trouble for me, Yuchen's mood will be affected. She doesn't want anything to happen to Yuchen, so she can only keep me from getting into trouble.
In the end, Hua Rong concluded that Zhai Xiaofeng had no selfish intentions towards her nephew, which reassured me. At the same time, he also told me to take good care of Yuchen, and he would send us away when Yuchen condensed the inner elixir.
Ever since he knew that Xiaorui was suppressed at the bottom of the cold pool, Hua Rong was more anxious than me and sent us out. After all, if we go out earlier, we can rescue Xiaorui earlier, and Xiaorui will suffer less.
Bai Qingjue's house was very big, and Hu Jinyue never returned to Huarong's village. Instead, she stayed in the room next to mine and Yuchen's. Our daily activities were in this small courtyard.
Hu Jinyue was bored and sat on the stone bench in the small courtyard every day, counting leaves during the day and stars at night.
During the day, he was counting leaves again. I asked him curiously, "Hu Jinyue, can you really count how many leaves there are on this tree?"
Hu Jinyue was bored to death. When she heard me talking to him, she immediately answered me excitedly, "Of course I can count clearly. It's not like I can't count."
Is this a matter of knowing numbers?
I said, "The branches and leaves are lush and the leaves are piled together. Are you sure you can't count them twice?"
After asking the question, I realized that I was really bored and was actually arguing with Hu Jinyue about this kind of thing.
Seeing me questioning him, Hu Jinyue became unhappy and said, "Brother Ma, I find that you always look down on me. Have I ever mentioned to you that I have a photographic memory. As long as it's something I want to remember, I'll take a look.
I can remember it firmly in my mind. Although there are many leaves on the tree, each leaf is different. I remember all the leaves I have counted. That’s why I won’t count them twice!”
He answered me seriously, as if he was doing something serious, but I questioned him.
I was too lazy to share his knowledge, so I nodded perfunctorily, "Okay, I was wrong. I shouldn't have doubted your ability."
"Little brother Ma, your apology is too heartless." As she said that, she didn't know what she thought of. Hu Jinyue's eyes lit up and she looked at me and said, "Little brother Ma, let's play a game. You ask and I answer.
I use my strength to prove to you that my memory is superior!"
He was really bored out of his mind to ask me to play such a game.
At the same time, I was bored staying here every day with nothing to do, so I agreed to him.
At first, I only asked some things that I knew. After all, I knew the things, so I could be sure whether he was talking nonsense. But after Hu Jinyue answered me, she disliked that the things I asked were too simple.
For him, everything that happened after he met me happened recently, and he naturally remembered everything. He asked me to make it more difficult.
I thought for a moment and asked him, "Hu Jinyue, can you tell me about your master? How did your master die?"
Hu Jinyue was stunned for a moment, then rolled her eyes at me, "Cunning little brother Ma..."
"ah!"
A muffled scream suddenly interrupted Hu Jinyue and I's nonsense.
Then I heard a thud, as if something fell to the ground.
The sounds came from inside the house, and there was only Yuchen in the house!
